>Description:

The comms/rxtx which is serial and parallel I/O libraries for Java
don't know "/dev/ttyU*" are valid serial devices, so we can not use
USB serial using this library.

>How-To-Repeat:
>Fix:

Apply patch below:

I am not familier about FreeBSD USB serials, so I don't know this
patch is enough. 
For example, "/dev/cuaU*" devices is not support in this patch.

If more device letter is needed, please comment.
